zzz open house today was boringzzz, good thing had the batchmates for company. left with hannah after the principle's address (where poppy answered a question and won a book hahha big joke) for cell lunch in rg. felt soooo weird to be back there with our red name tags. i think we looked like giganormous sec1s =D played the ice game & taboo super funny pls, then headed back to bishan to meet my dear batchmates who were BUMMING AROUND (as usual) and PIGGING OUT (as usual) on twister fries. okay we seriously need a new hobby. hee anyw, once we decided to stop being such bums, we went back to rj to play basketball. i concur again that i cannot shoot for nuts. and what happened to going prawning today manz hahaha i swear we are such indecisive peeeeeeps.

hmm first official day of rjc starts tmrw, not really feeling any thing right now. fine more like 30% apprehension, 30% excitement, 40% sleepiness. haha guess im just really glad i have my friends for another 2 years!



The atlantic was born today and I'll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out
I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
When the water filled every hole
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean
Making islands where no islands should go
Oh no

farewell assembly was very touching. especially at the part where limbt started to cry whilst delivering his speech. he was prolly the last few people on my list-of-teachers-most-likely-to-cry luh. ahhh i was seriously tearing up during his speech, it was so sweet. i could see people around me with tears streaming down their faces unabashedly, and it suddenly hit me that though for the past three years i found farewell assembly rather boring, this year was different because it was our farewell assembly. we were the ones going through all the 'lasts'. our last netcarn, our last morning assembly, our last math lesson, our last school function. haha boy four years have gone by so freaking fast. i won't ever regret leaving sc and coming to rg. cos i met all these awesome friends, not just hi-bye, come-and-go friends, but friends that will last for a lifetime. im sure of that (: actually, i guess the atmosphere today wasn't one of total devastation simply because we (well most of us luh) all knew that we would still have 2 more years in rj together. ehmygoodness i can't imagine if this was a real farewell. anyways, i think playing 'we're all in this together' at the end was a v good idea (TOO BAD I LIKE HSM HA HA). picture time with batchmates after that, then it was class partyy! we got back our progress reports, and yay my GPA improved 0.4 since my dismal midyear results so me = happy! though my sister has been very happy gloating about the fact that her GPA was 0.01 higher than mine.. so now i owe her gelare hahha. ooh this year we got pretty graduation rings (first batch to!! haha which kinda reiterates the point that our batch is the guinea pig batch) and pretty graduation booklets + class videos haha i was laughing so much whilst watching them.. and i guess i also felt kinda sad. i think the fact that we've graduated hasn't quite sunk in because there's still chinese o's, comeback, clueless, training etc. speaking of chinese o's..

GAHHHH I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL ITS OVER!!!! THEN CHINESE WILL BE OUT OF MY LIFE FOREVER AND I WILL WAVE BYE TO IT V V HAPPILY. I WANT TO DO MY B3ST (ha ha ha i am so punny)



HELLO BUFFET BUDDY :D





"so you wanna be on top!" hahha.

He’ll never fall in love he swears
As he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing cause I hope he’s wrong
I don’t think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke, I fake a smile
But I know all his favorite songs

And I could tell you
His favorite color’s green
He loves to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister’s beautiful
He has his father’s eyes
And if you ask me if I love him
I’d lie

p.s. whoopededoops i can't wait for chiangmai!!!!!!!!!!

one final day.

i can't believe four years is coming to an end so fast. it feels kinda.. surreal.

its a sad feeling ]:

i'll miss the safeness (?) of rg haha though i guess its considerably better seeing as we'll all be moving up to rj together. so its farewell assembly tmrw, but yet not exactly farewell. yaknowwww. and i think people will change in rj i hope i won't change that much though yah i know i've changed quite abit since sec one (haha hopefully in a good way!!) after all, change is the only constant, yadda yadda righto?

shall just enjoy the last official day of school tmrw, with farwell and class party and everything! mhmm wonder if i'll cry. i don't think so. then again, if there's the right atmosphere i can cry very easily. case in point: i cried whilst watching step up 2 ha ha ha.

i cantcantcantcant wait till chinese o's are over!! then there'll be alot to look forward to like come back, clueless etcetc. ehheh cant waittttt :D oh wait i said that already. hahha. ciao!

You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess

school life nowadays is so slack, what with breaks of 3 to 5 hours everyday in between lessons and options. haha boy am i thankful that school is 1 minute away from orchard, if not i'll be bored out of my mind everyday.

friday was coach's day and we were like chionging his present at 5pm, but it turned out super nice okay haha. we created a poem for him.. okay more like me and liying ttly weren't listening during geog options instead we were scribbling down all the stanzas. well evidently, our literary abilities got better towards the end of the poem whoopedoo. so me liying leen flea rushed out a huge board that had his poem + happy coach's day + pictures and we ended up reaching late heh. dinnered with the ri softballers at fish&co the glass house, and we gave coach the board + shirt + mango cake i think he was happy (: though this years coach's day dinner wasn't as cazy as last year luh, ahemahem. hahaha. this'll prolly be the last time we'll see everybuddy in a very long time, because everyone else is having EYAs now (except us wahaha) andand we have seriously NOWHERE to train, like rg rj ri all stopped training already. which is very bad cos we desperately need to train. ahwells, im sure we'll figure out a way.

saturday was speeeeech day, dang shouldn't have gone luh we were sitting in the kschee for the whole first part and we were on stage for all of 5 seconds. plus skipping the first rehersal got me and simin DC (!!!!!!!!!!) though watching movies at liying's house was obviously way beter than attending the rehersal, but stillllll. omg DC for the stupidest reason luh please. okay good thing i had manda and simin to pei wo during the whole thing, plus the reception was very good haha.

sunday was the best mid-autumn festival of my life, prolly due to the fact that i haven't exactly celebrated it before. met manda lai simin and we went to chinese gardens. the moon was super pretty luh! and there were fireworks but like when they went off at 830pm, we got such a shock cos it srsly sounded like a gunshot so all four of us screamed. omg embarassing muchly hahah. we also went to ti deng long, look at all the lantern displays and of course take alot of pictures, hahaha that was the night where lai ate the moon :D ohoh plus we went to ride on the carousel there! i love carousels, they give me such a.. romantic feeling ♥ 'tis was a very fun night next year we shall go somewhere else hee.











love my englishlit option all the stories/history/characters are super interesting ohnoz im in a dilemma should i take lit in JC or should i take econs everyone says its very important but it really doesnt sound like something i'll like and honestly its not like its business or something ahhh. hmm ohyah this friday/saturday is geog fieldtrip day like friday tan and i are going to goethe institute, saturday we are going on two back-to-back fieldtrips to i-have-no-idea-where. ohwell, it should be fun! and heehee friday we are going to buy all our junk food for.. sustainence on saturday :D we are greedybears hahaha.

yesterday went out with my sister to plaza sing to buy some stuff from daiso. i am very worried i think that a recession worse than the asian financial crisis is coming soon, what with all the banks etc collapsing. so i have vowed to spend less money (must stop eating out everyday!!) at daiso i bought food containers am planning to bring food to school, haha tomorrow im gonna cook pasta and like bring it to school for the whole of next week of something.

ooh i recently discovered the crime series numb3rs gosh its really interesting, and makes math seem so much more important (though i highly doubt that all the equations in the show actually make sense)

I was born to tell you I love you
Isn't that a song already?
I get a B in originality
And it's true I can't go on without you
Your smile makes me see clearer
If you could only see in the mirror what I see

post-EYA life obviously beats our stress-filled lives before, and so far its been pretty awesome (: except for the tiny fact that i think im 害怕自由 (like our chinese comprehension said) yaknow i think our teaching department is so sneaky, like all the comprehensions they give us can be applied to our lives haha.

so my past one week plus has been filled with going out, sleepovers, movies, eating (alot), trips to borders and all things fun under the sun, v v v v nice change from studying 24/7.









oh and during the september holidays i went on a four day (too short!!!) mission trip to cambodia to help out at a children's camp organized by new hope for orphans, so basically it was a camp where all the children from 7 different orphanages came together. it was amazing simply because the kids there were amazing ♥ they might have been through so much hardships in life, yet they worshipped God with the kind of enthusiasm and whole-heartedness missing back here. i listened to a few of their testimonies; one 12 year old girl told us how she was forced to work as a servant and how she was ill-treated. she thought of ending her life, but meeting God changed her life forever. i wonder, can i even fathom the kind of hardships that they had to endure? when i was twelve, i was probably worrying about my PSLE marks, not about whether i would have any food to eat for my next meal. standing amongst them, listening to them worshipping in khmer at the top of their voices was such a powerful and moving experience. made me think that i was really fortunate to be born in singapore, yet somtimes i dont exactly appreciate how much i have. like okay i keep saying i want new clothes, but honestly, i think i already have enough clothes, as compared to the children there who were so thankful to receive all the second-hand clothes that we brought over.

anyway, all of us stayed beside the beach, and everyday in the afternoon we would go to the beach and have such a fun time playing in the sea. the children would clamber on my back and all of us would start splashing water on one another it was v v v v v nice. ooh and there was this totally adorable little 2 year old boy called yacob who is so plump and cute and who wore a hello kitty g-string to the beach. i am not kidding. he was the cutest of them all!! haha on the trip i made manymany new "brothers" and "sisters", and the simplest acts of love such as holding their hands and hugging them would put a beaming smile on their faces. when they were happy, it made my day (: i really want to go back there in november!! im praying so hard that there will be a mission trip organized to the phnom penh orphanage, that one in particular because all the kids i was closest too are there. i went there to bless them, but honestly i think i was in turn doubly blessed.







i realize i took very few photos on this trip, haha i guess i was probably too busy having fun with the kids. ohwell, i believe i'll be going back to visit anyway i cant wait i miss the children there already!!

hmmm while everybuddy is busy mugging for the big O, school now is pretty really slack. lemme see, tomorrow the only lesson i have is.. PE, so i'll basically be going to school for PE. HAHA BIG JOKE. but okay luh, i need the exercise i havent trained in 7 weeks!! longest break ever i tell you my muscles are disappearing i am very sad. oh my options: of heroes, gods, men and skirts, cultural landscapes and principles of electronics. ive only had physics so far, and fine it isnt that bad. its actually quite interesting (hope it stays that way) well everyday i have breaks of 3/4 hours between lessons and options, and i have many many books on my to-read-list so borders will become my new bff haha.

am looking forward to chiangmai trip, expecting lotsa fun, sun and noise :D CMBs teehee. anddd have i mentioned how much i like gossip girl? hahaha can chuck and blair get together already they are totally perfect for one another. grey's anatomy season 5 coming out soon, so is season 4 of criminal minds yayzors. oooh plus cant wait to celebrate coach's day on sunday, have our 大餐 and go to chinese gardens to play with lanterns after under the full moooooon!
